## Resource

US equity futures are modestly firmer, while Asian equities are broadly higher and European equities are also modestly higher. Market sentiment remains supported by the in-line US inflation reading, which eased yields and reduced expectations for a September Fed rate hike. The AI trade is also firmer, supported by recent earnings and a positive corporate earnings outlook, while European macro data have generally surprised to the upside. Middle East developments remain a source of uncertainty, with little progress toward reviving the interim US-Iran peace agreement and traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remaining subdued. Companies Mentioned: SHEIN, Ford Motor, AEVEX Corp
